Hi, I'm new here and am very interested in a 318ti, so I guess this means I will part ways with my s10. I have liked these cars since I got to know my friend Andy(AlaskaBlue on here), and was kind of interested as to what I need to look for in a used 318ti, what milage to look for, and around what price to pay. I would prefer a 95(obdI rules) sport, 5sp, with the 16" rims. I also would prefer leather over cloth, and I have found one in my relative area(Evansville,IN). I was just wondering about how much a 95 ti, 5sp, leather, sport should cost with around 120k miles on it? Thanks

Hey Andrew welcome aboard. I hope you find a 318ti, that way you can understand what good handling is.
I say 6,000 is on the high end. I looked up KBB value for my car and it was something like 3,000 dollars, but I have never seen one go for that little. | | | | | 10-14-2005, 04:19 AM | #3 | | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 |

Haha funny  My car is like family now. After 10 years with us it can't be sold anymore.  There was a club sport he was looking at. That would be nice Andrew-I may need to stay at your place someweekend. Hopefully I am going to go get ITBs purchased and put on at a place in Louisville. Then they said they could do an S/C on top of that.....but later  | | | | | 10-14-2005, 09:15 PM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: A few tenths ahead of alaskablue Posts: 265 |

Oh yeah, Louisville is only about an hour's drive from here at the speed limit... I guess we'll take the radar detector and make it there in 35 minutes.

Andrew | I wouuld say go with 5000 cash if you have it, and start at 4500. BTW there is that autobahn road down by Evansville how does that work now? | | | | | 10-15-2005, 12:35 AM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: A few tenths ahead of alaskablue Posts: 265 |
Lets see, That works like any other toll road, except we go up to the 2nd floor of my building, get a german kid, explain to him that if we get stopped he is supposed to go off on the cop in german about the autobahn.....Except this road is called the audoban parkway...LMAO...and have him try to get us out of a 140+mph ticket..... I dunno if kentucky will go for that though...so, we shall take the radar detector!!!as well!!! Tell me when u r coming though.
